Third-party packages

Through a thriving, growing community, Meteor is rapidly gaining packages for all major JavaScript and Preprocessing libraries. These packages are intelligent in that they contain the base JavaScript or Preprocessing libraries, but they are also configured to interact directly with the Meteor code base.

What this means for you is that adding your favorite library involves almost no effort, and you can be confident that it will work with your Meteor application.

The best way to find new packages is through a web interface called Atmosphere. If you navigate to https://atmospherejs.com, you will be prompted with a search box:

Type in the names of some popular frameworks (such as bootstrap, iron router, react, and so on) and the chances are that you will be able to see multiple libraries to choose from. You can explore the most popular or most used packages as well by scrolling down on the home page:
